I would like to here of more arrests taking place over the murders and property damage that took place during the riots and looting.

Just follow twitter accounts of local police, they're making arrests every day on those assholes.

But the news outlet reporting on it is very biased.

You are all over this post with comments that support the article's dubious narrative.

It was posted by /s/scrubking, and is now defended by /s/King_Brutus.

Does anyone else here suspect that both of these accounts belong to the same user?

That's hilarious but no. Shockingly, "king" is not a unique word.

Seems like you didn't like what I was saying in our comment thread and have now tried to justify your righteous anger by reaching that I have multiple alts trolling this website to push a narrative.

The way this is titled really pushes for a racial divide narrative. He wasn’t a BLM organizer or key figure. Just one of many. His involvement in BLM didn’t cause the situation that led to these terrible circumstances. It was the sole work of an individual. And the reason for the lack of media attention is beyond me. Maybe it doesn’t fit the narrative. Maybe it’s boring. Maybe it will cause more racial tensions. But the news outlet reporting on it is very biased. Pictures after picture of him being seen in an unfavorable light. I’m not saying he’s a saint. But the way noqreport is twisting the narrative is clear and disgusting. Be careful about all news media. It’s not often that they tell you what you should know.

He was involved in BLM and killed a cop. Same way that people associate someone who kills a black man if he is a Trump supporter. It's ammunition.

The photos posted aren't "twisting the narrative" they are presenting information that he himself posted. I can tell you that I don't have any pics of myself holding guns and posing with drugs on my social media anywhere.

That’s a fair statement. And perhaps it’s not wrong to show someone’s social media pictures. This is how people present themselves in a new digital world. I do believe that there is an underlying narrative that is being pushed with articles like these. On both sides of the political spectrum.

No it’s not. The top link is of another incident occurring in April in Virginia. The murder occurred in Washington.

It's this real? It has the feel of a low budget PsyOp.

Where did they get the photos of him holding drugs and cash? Why would these be public?

Then there's a profile photo of his face next to a pile of grass, and a bag of blow....

Cause they want to make sure they get his face in there* right next to "the drugs"*.

Would anyone ever have their picture taken like that? It's stupid beyond belief.

Maybe it happened.

I didn't find anything while searching, so it seems unlikely.

Either way, people should use critical thinking and at least question the veracity of this stuff.

It's probably not reported in the news, because it's made up nonsense.

You haven't met much ghetto trash have you

[–]Tom_Bombadil 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (4 children)

Are you suggesting you hang out with ghetto trash, and you can personally confirm that putting your face in a profile photo with multiple drugs is a common thing.

Can you provide any photos of your friends posing as such?

Or are you simply broadcasting your overt racism?

[–]King_Brutus 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (3 children)

I've seen social media of people posing with drugs, yeah. It's not uncommon. Criminals tend not to be very smart and will post whatever they want on social media with no awareness of the potential repercussions.

And I didn't bring race into it, you did. So take a minute to think about that. The likelihood of "criminals gonna crim" is far more likely than "holy shit dude it's a psyop nobody would ever do a crime".

I beg to differ.

You haven't met much ghetto trash have you

[–]King_Brutus 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

Can white people not be ghetto trash? He is black and he is ghetto trash, nothing about that is racist towards all black people.

Calling people "raysist" and getting the updoots may work on Reddit but you have to have some more substance than that here. Try your post again.

There's not much of a story for national media to care about. Dude murders cop. Immediately arrested. Will be found guilty. Life in jail or death. Yawn.
